I have been using Linux since 1993. Maybe it is time to move on.

I mean I wouldn't mind if he bought a bunch of computer manufacturers and made them switch to Linux. Would be a better use of his money than whatever he's doing with it now.

This thread is focusing on whether he's right, even while being a shithead. The problem IMO is not whether he's right or not, it's what his 'plans' are if the world moves in the direction he starts nudging. Guy's a psycho edgelord pro-fascist with Bond villain tendencies, but he's surfed on trends to carve monopolies before... Idk

You don't have to like everyone that likes what you like.

I hope now all those Tesla / Musk sycophants and influencers will start touting Linux as the "big new thing" Elon has invented. /s

Please tell me that’s not real. I don’t want him being a Linux fan boy. That would ruin the Linux community.
